About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs and cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and living areas, administering medications when needed, and ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I am reliable, patient, and committed to providing loving, responsible care while owners are away. I’m currently unemployed while my children are in daycare and after school programs. Outside of appointments I’m free spending time with my cats and my females kittens I currently have 2 black cats. My female whom I rescued recently was pregnant and had 6 babies(3 weeks old) I’ve also had dogs and cats in my past. I love animals. My home is clean and organized.
“Dominique was an amazing dog walker! She was communicative, always answering questions promptly and showing up on time. Chester, our poodle loved her and the walks she provided. I highly recommend Dominique!”
About: Hi! My name is Winter I am 19 years old and am a college student! I have 3 dogs of my own (1 big 2 small) that are super friendly and love to go on walks! I got Chloe about 6 years ago so I have had a lot of experience with dogs! I am a college student who goes back to school around mid September! I would love to help out on a flexible schedule for the summer! I take my dogs out on walks once a day and clean up after them ( puppy pads, food, water, ect) while my mom is at work. I love to help out and play! I am very energetic and bubbly and am excited to help out with your dogs aswell!
About: Hi there! I’m a current YSN student doing pet care on the side. I have always had lots of animals (currently two cats) and always love to meet new furry friends of all shapes and sizes :)I would love to work with you and your animals providing the best care possible! At the moment I have fully open availability and keep my rover schedule up to date! Anything changes will be kept up to date. . I have a lot of experience with my own animals and grew up taking care of the neighborhood dogs and cats as well. Since I've been around a lot of different animals with a lot of different personalities, I can make any animal feel comfortable around me and quickly pick up on each of their individual needs.
“Sandra was fantastic!! She was friendly, professional and great with our dog Maple. We had a last minute need and she came in clutch and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Pauline helped me out last minute when I needed to work unexpectedly. She did a great job with my two dogs one of whom is scared around new people. She was reliable, patient with them, and communicative, which I really appreciated!”
“Heather is wonderful! Maizie cozied up to her immediately, and it's super-clear she and Heather have a tight bond even after just a couple of walks (and belly rubs..). And I get to come home at the end of the day to a very happy and calm pup.”
“Anna was great! She was available, prompt, friendly, and helped to make my pup feel comfortable. She saved the day for me and was available when others were not! Would highly recommend”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, chinchillas, and more since I was 8 years old (including my childhood dog that’s 16 and still kicking!!) I’ve wrapped up my full time job and waiting for grad school to begin in August. Plenty of availability during the weekdays and nights - just ask! I have doors on all the rooms so that pets can roam safely inside my home. Floors are easily cleanable and there is an outdoor space and many parks nearby.
About: Ive had years of experience between puppies to senior dogs. All deserve the same love. I've had a litter of 8 puppies 11 years ago and it taught me more than any book could. I still have one from that litter to this day. All dogs are different and need to be catered to independently. They all have their own love language. I work part time and its flexible, so I'm looking to fill the gaps with zoomies, pets, treats and love from dogs and other animals. In home, I have a large fenced yard, but prefer a walk so we both get exercise. Clients homes depend on what they have available.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments since I was 18. Now working in the medical side, I am able to make sure pets get their medications (including insulin) appropriately. I am mostly able to care for pets during the weekends or at nights. My work schedule at the veterinarian keeps me busy during the weekdays. I am unfortunately not able to offer pet care at my personal home. I am more than willing to travel to a clients house to care for their pets in their most comfortable environment.
About: I have had pets since I can remember, so I understand that they really are family. I promise to give your pet the same love and care that I have always given my own! I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pet during the workday. I take my dog for a walk in the morning, and then periodic potty breaks throughout the day. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play, or maybe just lounge. I also have plenty of toys (and treats) available!
“Selja was a huge help when we needed a dog walker at the last minute. She was caring, eSy to communicate with, a natural with our dog (a pitbull/boxer mix) and also checked in on the 2 cats in the home. We set up the meet and greet the day before to go over the details since its a complex household w a special needs adult in the home. She was extremely professional and l would totally use her services again!!”

Jeanne is wonderful. Checks all the obvious boxes – reliable, trustworthy, punctual, etc. But most importantly,IMO, incredibly patient and kind. I don’t need Jeanne’s services terribly often, so there are usually big blocks of time in between her visits with Sadie. She’s always so patient in allowing Sadie to take her time and get reacquainted. Equally sensitive to her comfort as to getting the walk done and the business taken care of. I’m grateful to have found her.
Layla took excellent care of our little pup and was really flexible and highly responsive when our plans changed. Our dog has a bit of separation anxiety but we notice even after a multi day absence when we come back after Layla’s care she is very relaxed. We highly recommend her.
Aleeki is so kind and reliable! She’s taken care of my dog a few times now and every time she is so communicative. I had some last minute schedule changes last weekend and she really went above and beyond to make sure my girl was well cared for. I appreciate her so much!
Nancy was immediately loved by my pit mix Cheebs. He is very selective about his people but warmed up to Nancy so quickly, which made us knew we can trust her. She’s great with our guy, loves on him like he’s her own. She’s stayed in our home and done a few walks and we know we can count on her. Thank you, Nancy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in East Haven on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,147 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across East Haven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your East Haven. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in East Haven.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Haven. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
